The paper introduces Uni-SafeBench, a safety benchmark designed to evaluate the holistic safety of Unified Multimodal Large Models (UMLMs) across six safety categories and seven task types. It also presents Uni-Judger, a framework that separates contextual safety from intrinsic safety to enable rigorous assessment. Evaluations reveal that current unified models do not consistently maintain the safety alignment of their underlying language models, and open‑source UMLMs perform significantly worse on safety than specialized multimodal models, especially in generation tasks.

arXiv:2606. 06217v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: When a disaster unfolds, responders must answer not only what is happening, but also why it is happening, what will happen next, and what to do now, often from noisy low-altitude UAV views and under tight on-site compute constraints.
